The document discusses the concepts of the "Rabble" and the "Humble" based on passages from the book of Numbers. The Rabble are described as those who take God's blessings gladly but always demand more and have allegiance to God based on being entertained and obeyed. In contrast, the Humble recognize God's blessings, follow his ways even when difficult, and have commitment to God based on what he has already done for them. The document encourages the reader to commit to daily prayer and Bible reading to move from fighting against God to giving him control.

This document discusses the importance of family in three sections. It acknowledges that family can be difficult but is God's idea and can shape us into who God wants us to be. While families may control aspects of our lives and embarrass us at times, we need our families more than we realize as God uses them to mold us through our experiences according to His righteous laws and decrees.WWME #5 Culture (Media & Myspace)

Discipleship is important because it fosters spiritual growth, deepens a believer's relationship with God, and equips them to live out their faith and share it with others. It's a process of learning, growing, and becoming more like Christ, guided by God's Word and through relationships with other believers.
Here's a more detailed look at why discipleship is important:
1. Fulfilling the Great Commission:
Jesus commanded his followers to "make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19-20).
Discipleship is the practical outworking of this command, going beyond initial conversion to ongoing growth and transformation.
It involves teaching believers to obey all that Jesus commanded, not just initial beliefs.
2. Growing in Spiritual Maturity:
Discipleship helps believers mature in their faith, moving beyond basic understanding to a deeper knowledge of God and His will.
It involves learning to apply biblical principles to all areas of life, including relationships, work, and service.
Through discipleship, believers can develop Christ-like character traits and learn to live a life of purpose and meaning.
3. Building Stronger Communities:
Discipleship fosters unity and mutual support within the church community.
It encourages believers to encourage, challenge, and pray for one another.
When believers are actively involved in discipleship, they are more likely to participate in church life and contribute their gifts to the body of Christ.
4. Empowering Believers to Share Their Faith:
Discipleship equips believers to effectively share their faith with others and invite them to follow Jesus.
It provides the tools and confidence needed to disciple others, creating a ripple effect of spiritual growth.
Discipleship is not just about personal growth; it's also about reaching out to the world with the love and message of Christ.
5. Impacting the World for Christ:
Discipleship is essential for building a strong and vibrant church that can impact communities and the world for Christ.
Disciples who are equipped to live out their faith can make a significant difference in their families, workplaces, and neighborhoods.
By making disciples, the church can continue to grow and fulfill its mission of reaching the lost and transforming lives. Despite the benefits, many self-professing Christians today are not involved in discipleship. A recent study from the Barna Group showed that 39% of Christians were not engaged in discipleship at allthat is a huge percentage! And while 61% said they were involved in some level of discipleship, there are different levels of involvement.
In the Barna study, they defined Christians who were engaged in discipleship community as those who were both being discipled by someone and discipling others. We understand that discipleship is a broad term, and can encompass many things. For reference, here is how we define discipleship at Life on Life:

In ministry, women have diverse roles focused on service, discipleship, and support, contributing to the church and community through various activities. While some denominations restrict women from certain leadership positions like pastor or elder, women actively participate in teaching, evangelism, prayer, worship, and service within the church. They also play a vital role in women's ministry, fostering spiritual growth, community, and outreach.

Spiritual Disciplines:
Women can lead in prayer, fasting, and Bible study, fostering a deeper relationship with God.
Support and Encouragement:
